Gita in bici di un giorno da Zhubei a Fengyuan

Ready for a scenic adventure? This cycling route takes you from bustling Zhubei in Hsinchu County all the way to Fengyuan, a lively district just north of Taichung. You’ll roll out from Zhubei, known for its tech-driven vibes thanks to proximity to Hsinchu Science Park, then cruise mostly on cycleways and quiet backroads.

The ride stretches about 123 km, so plan for a long day (or break it into two)! Expect to climb around 800 meters overall — nothing too crazy, but you’ll feel it in your legs. The journey offers a mix of gentle ascents, wide-open fields, and gradual descents as you head south. Surfaces are mostly smooth asphalt, making for easy pedaling.

Fengyuan greets you at the end, famous for its lively night market and for being right on the edge of Taichung’s lush hills. Whether you’re in for the scenery, the rural vibes, or the local eats at both ends, this ride is a fantastic way to explore western Taiwan’s heartland by bike.
